I find exactly the same thing. A few weeks ago I was trying to sort the gap out between my 4w and 22* hybrid, so tried a load of clubs in the simulator down at Golf Galaxy. In the end it came down to a 19* Halo, 19* G5 hybrid, 20* Baffler and 22* Cleveland Launcher 7w. All of them hit the ball pretty much the same distance, but the 7w got the ball up the easiest and was by far the most consistent.

For an absolute hybrid-lover like me it was quite a revelation to end up buying the 7w!
